Plasencia Reserva Original

Technically an oldie but a goodie, the Reserva Original is a cigar that Plasencia debuted years ago as Reserva Organica. The Plasencia family is ecstatic about this, as they should be because it is truly a one-of-a-kind cigar. Described as one that Columbus would have enjoyed when he discovered Nicaragua, it is the first and only fully organic blend in the entire world!

This green niche product began growth in 2001, and the Plasencia family has this unique tobacco for the Reserva Original certified by OSHA every year. These handmade beauties are medium in body and are made with the same sweet tobacco blend as the Reserva Organica. Give this resurfaced gem a whirl.

One great cigar! The consistency you get from Plasencia is similar to Roma Craft. Always a smooth, cool draw, and this one has some Cubanesque qualities in the taste and aroma. I expect it will age nicely as do most...
There are a couple of boxes of these in my coolerdor! The Alma Fuerte is Spectacular, and the Del Campo is also very impressive. Looking very forward to trying their newest creation, Fuego!

Nice even burn, hints of spice and leather, not of that of the Soloman or Hexagano of which I love but a little more subtle . Nice draw of smoke, easy to pull. As always Plasencia delivers another classic .

One of my favorites. Smooth, rich, nice hints of leather and just a delicious swirl of flavor. Certainly in the medium category, but an outstanding cigar for the price. Nice construction, and good quality cigar to enjoy.

I had searched for a totally organic non-Cuban cigar, and this Plasencia appears to be the only one on the market (a friend claims he can taste the pesticides in non-Cuban cigars, but not in Cuban's as they use no or little pesticides/fungicides/chem fertilizers). This cigar had a natural, rich flavor....coffee, raisins, nutmeg...and no "off" flavors (where "off" flavors could be attributed to pesticides, etc.). Really liked these. A bit pricey, but organic production has to be more costly, so no issues to obtain this higher quality.....
